Have you ever had your zucchini… in noodle form? Have we blown your mind? Rocked your world? Vaguely amused you as you changed tabs to check your email? Well, they're called zoodles, and they can't be beaten, for they give you your green vegetables in a way that's exciting and new. Cooked with acidy tomatoes, nutty Parmesan, and pungent garlic, they'll be your new veggie go-to. You may now go back to your emails. Tip: Make quick work of mincing garlic by smashing the whole clove with the side of your chef's knife. Then rock the knife back and forth, keeping the tip steady by resting your other hand over the top.
